I have been followed too, I just turn around and walk the other way, they soon bugger off! Makes me laugh how they think they are inconspicuous though... spot em a mile off lol
Well, Mamma Ferret is back, I have just been to her place without her knowing as a nice suprise to greet her... yeah, I got there and caused a flood lol. She got back and I was drying her carpets over the balcony. WELCOME HOME
So now I will try to sleep... I have that feeling in my legs that means I am in for a good nights sleep as I have been out walking today for a good 90 mins and they are aching

Watched Catfish. Don't know whether it was the fly on the wall it was cracked up to be, but it was ok... I think... A bit unsettling/sad though.
The world wide web is a weird place. Off to Bedfordshire - hopefully dream of a simpler time...

Thinking I really need to go to my bed. The Scottish election results programme is on and it brings back memories of my dad who would've been in his element!

I had a dream about my cat, opened my eyes and she fricking bit me Not proper biting, just kind of holding your hand - let you know it's breakfast time but... I like to be woken up gently - nice cup off coffee.
Cats need opposable thumbs.

@Monkey “big storm” - nature? Real storm – if so I love 'em. Complain about 'em all the time but love me some hurricane/typhoon/or whatever! ahahaha
----------------------
Listening to Amy Whinehouse. 75% Finished making my dinner - @5am – crab meat (real – well I hope it's real ) cooked that, added diced onions, tomatoes, all is left is to wait until it's cold enough to add mayo, with some toasted bread → crab meat sandwhich - yummy!

My facebook is swamped with stories of thunderstorms etc... ah man I used to love them. I have a lovely memory of sitting on my doorstep during a storm with a dude who rocked my world Very happy memory
I have just made a cheese and potato pie for dinner tomorrow, it is late but I already know I have the wide awakes so I may as well be constructive.
Memoirs of a Geisha is on TV, I love this film and I adored the book. All round a pretty damn fine evening.

@Micky have a wonderful 3 day break and happy pre- mother's day. You deserve it. I love good news.
@Cheeky – You're a sun chick! Living in Egypt I awoke at 4pm (mostly). Egypt has the most amazing nighttime I used to the love 6pm-until maqrib(sundown) and everything afterwards. Beautiful and romantic.
Memoirs of a Ghesia was so awesome. A 10/10 movie. If you get the chance download “Game of Thrones” It's excellent, critics raved about it, it's a series based on novels. You'll love it. The season just started (episode 3).

Sponge, I love that ad. Imagine, breakfast in bed every morning... Oh right, it's cat's - ah, I get it now. More like trip wires at the top of the stairs, ah the snooty buggers
Real storm - thought it was going to be a good one but it kind of fizzled out We used to have some humdingers down here when I was a kid. I remember the skies turning a bruised green and hailstones the sizes of cherries. And hanging on to the railings and letting the wind take our legs - ah, good stuff. I think this was the one where Michael Fish said "Hurricaine? What hurricaine?" Mwahahaha.
Memoirs of a Gheisha was ace. I loved that book - it was so visual. They did a good job on the film though. Did Speilberg do it? He was talking about it at one point.
Y@H - I've found that in the past. Had a weird one about my friend moving to a house two doors up - saw it clear as crystal. And she did, spooky. Had another that she was moving again. And she did. Spookier. Had one that we were all riding on the top of a camper van and it flipped over. That never happened, BTW.
Does anyone get that dream about driving to a place, over and over, and it seems so familiar, but it's nowhere you've been in real life? I've been getting it quite a bit. Annoying. It looks like a nice place!
What would Freud say Nah, I don't want to know.

Wifey got a new hairstyle → and I hate it. Maybe have to get used to it. But I've been good so far at concealing my distaste. Will now go to a new cafe that they opened near our home, it's a Hainian place, open air, very nice, and during days they have open air cooling.

1.)Neighbor at 5am in morning doing something loud upstairs.
2.)Dryer! Just heard it spin. What kind of dryer spins 5 hours later! My wife put the clothes in before I put her to bed, around midnight! I turned the wall socket switch off. I bet this has something to do with higher electricity bills.
Ok, person upstairs stopped banging.
Chilling once again

Waiting for my chick to return from the curry house. Awaiting malay indian pancakes called tosai with the works (dhal sauce, etc). Want to go to bed too, it's like 9am now. Not complainging - love it. I'm in this cycle now where i am waking up later and later. I don't care I let my hours flow like that. You know the hairstyle thing, it's different, it's too neat, to straight, i don't like style wise, but it's a turn on in a way.

Watching Jackass 2... it does make me laugh and Johnny Knoxville is HOT.
I have an afternoon of chilling too, my only plan today is I have to go the airport of a Duty Free run
The weather is very nice today, I have a lovely cool breeze running through my apartment; a nice day to have nothing at all to do

Three consecutive days without rain. While good news for most places. This is not so good for tropical areas as consistent rain is vital to cooling this climate, and it's been hot lately. Oh well more business for the slurpee folk.
Going now to Ace Hardware, damn bathroom light (MB) has a unique one, tried several places with no luck. And apparently I need to get on top of it.

@Cheeky – hope your achy body feels better. Maybe a visit to the spa for a full body massage is in order. Also did you download Game of thrones episode 1 yet or not? I'm telling you - you'll love it!
@Micky – love reading the word “lazy” when you post as I know you work very hard. Hope your suntan builds nicely. You know you're bad for mentioning ranch burgers.
@Monkey – I believe you had what's called a “sleep hangover” – your body is simply not used to such sleep indulgence. And crabbing as in crabs? as in edible sea creatures (okay some are mud creatures) or is it some english term for something else – as you clever brits have a knack for concocting? If crabbing as I know it to be - then - wow. That is awesome, have a great time. I love crabs, can't emphasize it enough. I go to great lengths to procure crabs. I love 'em cooked all styles baltimore – seattle – fatty crab malaysia style (spicy, chilli) I love crabs so much, got a few yesterday morning, froze 'em, and will probably cook two in a little while. Again have a wonderful time.
@YAH – Congrats on the new job.
Totally chilling. Yankee game started 15 minutes ago, will tune in to that.

Yes, the walking sideways kind Have my nice new collapsible pot to put through its paces. Kind of worried what happens if I do get one though... They're fiesty buggers and I rather like my fingers. Kind of attached to them : We've got some ace mussel beds so I'll come home with something, one way or another.
Congrats on the job youngster

Exiiled... I will DL as soon as I have cleared some space on my laptop
I just had a long soak in a hot bath and feel a million times better. I would never resort to a massage, especially here! Have you met pervy E7?
Crabbing, oh I hate that lol... aside from it boring the crap outta me the kids freak me out when they learn over the edge! I go crabbing every year and dread it!
Just off to learn to how to recycle my old jewellery and learn how to design and make my own. Should be a fun day.
One of the lessons we have to go to the Khan, it will be interesting to go with a group of Egyptian ladies so they can see how western lasses are spoken to.... I am positive they don't believe me lol.
Nice one YAH... I hope you really enjoy it. Remember, anyone who truely loves their job never has to work again
